 We have the following goals related to interop code being used in CoreFX:
 
 - Minimize code duplication for interop.
-	- We should only define a given interop signature in a single place.  This stuff is tricky, and we shouldn’t be copy-and-pasting it.
-- Minimize unnecessary IL in assemblies.  
-	- Interop signatures should only be compiled into the assemblies that actually consume them.  Having extra signatures bloats assemblies and makes it more difficult to do static analysis over assemblies to understand what they actually use.  It also leads to problems when such static verification is used as a gate, e.g. if a store verifies that only certain APIs are used by apps in the store.

 ### Interop type
 - All code related to interop signatures (DllImports, interop structs used in DllImports, constants that map to native values, etc.) should live in a partial, static, and internal “Interop” class in the root namespace, e.g.
 ```C#
-internal static partial class Interop { … }
+internal static partial class Interop { ... }
 ```

 - With few exceptions, the only methods that should be defined in these interop types are DllImports.
-	- Exceptions are limited to times when most or every consumer of a particular DllImport will need to wrap its invocation in a helper, e.g. to provide additional marshaling support, to hide thread-safety issues in the underlying OS implementation, to do any required manipulation of safe handles, etc.  In such cases, the DllImport should be private whenever possible rather than internal, with the helper code exposed to consumers rather than having the DllImport exposed directly.

 ### File organization
-- The Interop partial class definitions should live in Interop.*.cs files.  These Interop.*.cs files should all live under Common rather than within a given assembly’s folder.
-	- The only exception to this should be when an assembly P/Invokes to its own native library that isn’t available to or consumed by anyone else, e.g. System.IO.Compression P/Invoking to clrcompression.dll.  In such cases, System.IO.Compression should have its own Interop folder which follows a similar scheme as outlined in this proposal, but just for these private P/Invokes.
-- Under Common\src\Interop, we’ll have a folder for each target platform, and within each platform, for each library from which functionality is being consumed.  The Interop.*.cs files will live within those library folders, e.g.

-Using enums instead of partial, static classes can lead to needing lots of casts at call sites and can cause problems if such a type needs to be split across multiple files (enums can’t currently be partial).  However, enums can be valuable in making it clear in a DllImport signature what values are permissible.  Enums may be used in limited circumstances where these aren’t concerns: the full set of values can be represented in the enum, and the interop signature can be defined to use the enum type rather than the underlying integral type.

 ## Naming
-- Interop signatures / structs / constants should be defined using the same name / capitalization / etc. that’s used in the corresponding native code.
-	- We should not rename any of these based on managed coding guidelines.  The only exception to this is for the constant grouping type, which should be named with the most discoverable name possible; if that name is a concept (e.g. Errors), it can be named using managed naming guidelines.
